Illegal immigrants learn a trick to sneak in: Dress like drug smugglers

Single adults racing across one part of the U.S.-Mexico border are dressing as drug smugglers to make it less likely they'll be caught.

Approximately 90% of unauthorized immigrant adults arrested by federal agents based in Tucson, Ariz., are dressed in head-to-toe camouflage and wear carpet booties that are also covered in a camouflage pattern.

Historically, individuals who were arrested near the border and dressed in camouflage and carpet booties were drug smugglers. Agents refer to these types of drug smugglers as “mules” because they carried 40- to 50-pound backpacks of marijuana and ArmaLite Rifles through the desert.
 
The single adults may have criminal histories, have been deported, or be trying to evade detection for other reasons. The smugglers running them are investing in the outfits to help this demographic sneak across.
